“From the Pad of Kermit the Frog

No one rocked harder than the great Ozzy Osbourne.

We loved working with him on our album “Kermit: Unpigged." He recorded “Born to Be Wild" with Miss Piggy – the perfect song for both of them!

Every time we bumped into Ozzy over the years, he made us feel just as cool as he was.

We loved having a friend like Ozzy Osbourne and we feel so lucky to have known him, worked with him and experienced his music for so many decades."
